zChapter 1051 - Can You Give Her Happiness (1/2)

Outside Deyang Gate, Wu Lisheng obtained the news from unknown sources that Feng Zhaolian was going to leave the palace today and actually came over with a horse carriage to meet with him personally. Feng Zhaolian got a headache once he saw this Wu Lisheng and sometimes had the thought of selling this woman. Unfortunately, he had been unable to do so the whole time.

Because Feng Zhaolian had stayed in the palace for some time, Wu Lisheng had not been him for a long time. It was probably because she missed him, so she lunged over like a gust of wind. Feng Zhaolian dodged by stepping back, but Xuan Tiaming pushed him forward, and the two collided with a ‘Bang’, Wu Lisheng then curled up in the crook of Feng Zhaolian’s arms and it looked like she was being hugged by him.

The Seventh Prince Xuan Tianhua said with a smile: “Prince Lian has the best person to keep you company, how can my Chun Palace bear the weight of the arrival of Prince Lian.” After saying this, he said to Wu Lisheng: “Princess, please hurry to help Prince Lian onto the horse carriage, it’s cold outside, he is wearing too little, it would be bad if he catches a cold.”

Feng Zhaolian really wanted to tell Xuan Tianhua that he really did not feel cold at all. To Qian Zhou, the cold in Da Shun capital was as warm as their spring and he could even wear lesser than this. But Wu Lisheng had a firm grip on him, dragging him to the side of the horse carriage from Lian Manor. The driver was also in cahoots with Wu Lisheng and quickly pulled him up, stuffing him into the carriage. When the carriage was leaving, Wu Lisheng bowed to Xuan Tianming, quietly showing her gratitude.

When Feng Zhaolian’s horse carriage drove into the distance, Feng Yuheng directed a questioning gaze at Xuan Tianming. Xuan Tianming told her: “He should return to where he came from, I secretly sent someone to notify Lian Manor that he was leaving the palace today. This should be considered doing a good thing.”

Feng Yuheng raised her thumb towards Xuan Tianming, showing her approval.

Everyone left the palace separately and boarded their own family’s imperial carriages and horse carriages. Xiangrong followed the Seventh Prince to get on Chun Palace’s imperial carriage. On the way, Xuan Tianhua saw her pale complexion, lowered head and the fact that she had not said anything so far, so he finally sighed slightly and said: “Do not think too much, people’s fates aren’t decided by others. Look, even if Father Emperor granted the marriage, you were also able to avoid it successfully, and all of this was because you performed acts of kindness and accumulated all this virtue. Therefore, what saved you today was not other people, but yourself.”

Xiangrong looked up towards him then, and for an instant, she really wanted to ask Xuan Tianhua if he wanted to marry her. But as the words reached the tip of her tongue, she thought that she was asking for too much and was even asking for a foot after gaining an inch. In the past, when she did not have much interaction with Xuan Tianhua, she only wished to occasionally see him from afar and was satisfied. Right now, she had entered Chun Palace, and wished to be able to speak a few sentences with him every day, then thought that it was best to have more opportunities to spend time together. Right now, she wanted to ask if he wanted to marry her, was she not asking for a foot after gaining an inch? The current situation was already much better than the past, why was she so anxious?

This young girl’s face turned red again, lowering her head and did not say anything else.

Actually, Xuan Tianhua understood what Xiangrong was thinking, it was just that he was the same as her, he knew that the person in front of him was very very good, but his heart could not get rid of the other person’s shadow. Accepting Xiangrong for no reason, he was afraid that he would end up hurting her one day.

It was snowing outside and the imperial carriage was advancing very slowly on the road, they finally passed the section of road with a lot of people and carriages, and the journey ahead was much smoother, just as the driver prepared to spur on the horses, unexpectedly, the imperial carriage was suddenly stopped by someone.

The carriage stopped abruptly, the people inside did not know the reason, but before they had the chance to ask, someone spoke loudly from outside: “Seventh Brother, my apologies, I stopped your carriage because I wanted to ask the person beside you a few questions.”

Xiangrong jolted, it was Xuan Tianyi’s voice.

“Feng Xiangrong.” Xuan Tianyi asked loudly: “I will just ask you one question, will you still be returning to Ji An Prefecture?”

His voice was carried by the wind, entering her ears directly. Xiangrong said: “I am returning, my mother is still there, Ji An Prefecture is my home, not the capital.”

“Alright.” Xuan Tianyi spoke again: “Then I will accompany you, let me know before you leave, we will go together.”

Xiangrong frowned deeply and replied with determination: “If you insist on doing so, I will not be able to stop you, but I will jump off a cliff on the way to Ji An Prefecture. You can collect my body on the way!”

Once she said this, Xuan Tianhua first frowned slightly, staring at this girl, his gaze containing some beratement.

For half a beat, there was no response from outside. Just as Xiangrong thought that person had already left and was about to breathe a sigh of relief, she heard Xian Tianyi’s voice again, but it was a question directed at Xuan Tianhua: “Seventh Brother, can you give her happiness?” His voice contained deep loneliness and despair.
